Looks like you're having fun with your fabric. Keep us posted on your progress. I love watching a quilt grow from bitty threads.

Your idea of adding a focus fabric adds so much life to the string blocks--great work!

Oh no, I started with a bucket of little scraps but had to add bigger pieces from my scrap bin lol and then of course add the Laurel Birch for the focus...

I love the colorful fabric and the way how you put it together. Are all the fabrics pure cotton ?

I love your scrappy project! I would never have thought of using some of Laurel's fabric either, which I do have in my stash too! I have to bookmark this topic, so I can come back here for inspiration to do one myself! Thanks for sharing, I can't wait to see more as you get it done! Take care & try not to fall anymore!...
